Hi! William

How do you know when and where to invest to grow your business?

Every day we are faced with business decisions: how to spend our time, energy, and money in our business.

There are two main investments you can make to grow your business *time and money*.

If you’re starting your business on the side and you still have a full-time job, you might have more money and less time.

On the other hand you might be in the opposite situation where you have a lot of free time, but not a lot of money to get your business started up.

If you have time but not money, get your hands on as many free ads sites as you can and take massive action to figure out what works to grow your business.

If you have money, then it makes sense to buy some good packages that will fast track your success.

It’s really easy to jump from idea to idea, without ever getting the results that you were looking for.

That’s why we recommend being strategic when it comes to making decisions, and planning out your plan of work.

For me the good way for starting should be:

Take a Standing order, and one S-Builder or Psa to go!

Make sure you rich your 1500 vp’s monthly and you just need to place a lot of advertising after!

Good Luck William :)

A good budget to start with SFI would only require a bit of chump change. You basically don't need all that much to begin. I'd say put a few dollars aside (or whatever your native currency may be) for a Standing Order, namely the 125 T-Credit pack. That only costs 36 bucks and a quarter. Now if you want to kick in a few extra dollars for an S-Builder Co-op unit, then that will run you about $22 and some change.

In a nutshell, you'll only need around $50 to $80, tops.

Much success to you! And don't be a spendthrift! ;)

If you have just joined, buy the New Member Pack. At least one of my upline bought five when this was first offered, but do this only if money is no object.

A good Standing Order would include at least the 125 TCredit pack (so that you wouldn't have to worry about reaching EA2 each month), and at least one share in S-Builder (that would also give you a discount on PSAs to Go).. If you have the money, also add at least one pack of thirty gift cards, you can also win these in our auctions.

You can add more items as you earn more, but I think this would give you a good start.

From personal experience, I think you should budget for 2 years with SFI before seeing a reasonable profit. I guess everyone has their own idea on what is a reasonable profit. That is for you to decide yourself.

Just picture yourself with a bricks and mortar store. You have to rent the store, pay staff, electricity and outgoings and buy stock to sell. This all costs money and you have to do this every single month. You would most likely be in a bricks and mortar business for the very minimum of 2 years and more than likely up to 5 years before you start seeing a profit.

Taking all that into account, I would with SFI aim for seeing a profit in 2 years if you are doing everything right…..signing in every day and having a Standing Order are the most important tasks. The next most important task is to sell/buy products from the TripleClicks store.

Allowing for the said 2 years, I would budget for a minimum of $35 per month bearing in mind that there will be TCredits and other prizes which you can win and which helps you achieve your goal. This is not an amount which has to be paid all at once like a bricks and mortar business and is most definitely money well spent. In summary, for an amount of less than $1000 and at the end of 2 years, if you are attending to all your daily chores, you should be able to build yourself up to Team Leader level and thus take advantage of all the perks available including your second home CSAs to help build your team.

Good question but in my opinion it depends on affiliate’s financial position. If he/she has enough money to invest then I recommend almost 90 dollars per month.
S.O 125 TCredits for $36.25
S.O S.Builder co-op (1 unit) for $22
S.O PSA to go (10 pack) for $35.45
If he/she has a low budget then he/she maintain his/her EA status just for $20 monthly he/she can buy 10 TCredits not a bulk, but only one TCredit just for $1.99 and he/she would get 102 SVP, and for 10 TCredits he/she would get 1020 SVP and remaining points you would get for doing daily,weekly and monthly actions. He/she should advertise at free websites for PSA’s and PRM’s and try generate sales for Triple Clicks.
I think it would help.
Good Luck!

Really there’s no specific budget for anyone to start with SFI. Its very individual. It depends on your set goals, what you want to achieve with SFI.

Joining SFI is free with no obligations. You have the option to opt out anytime. However, if you think correctly, sticking or depending too much on ‘ free stuff’ may not be the best strategy for our online marketing business. You need to spend some money to get results.

With SFI, the minimum requirement to attain/maintain your EA/EA2 positions is 1500 VPs. So you have the option of having a standing order for TCredits pack of 125, 100, S-Builder Co-op and New Member Pack (NMP). Thats the minimum you can think of, with purchases, for a start. Continue the SO if you can afford, otherwise, use VP Ledger to check every single action points you can get for your daily, weekly and monthly tasks. For newbies, 1st month should be the earning while learning month, with plenty of free VPs being given for free by SFI. 2nd month is the real work, where you apply all you’ve learned to gain 1500 free VPs or by way of transfer buying or promoting products from TripleClicks or ECAs, building your team of active PSAs/CSAs, another word is start to duplicate.

One thing is sure that if you apply the correct methods of building your business as per the training tools provided by SFI, you will not be required to spend your hard earned money so much. The most important is keep learning before you decide to be a Team Leader.

I think that all You have to do at the beginning is to place a standing order ( SO ) , and to invest some money in advertising to find more people and grow Your team. With SO You will get 1500 VP so You will be EA ( enough for beginning ) and paid advertising gives better results than free advertising especially now when there are many free ads on internet. You will get 120 T-credits too You can use in many ways. Or even take an auction.

When You find 5 more people who will do the same thing You did, You will have 5 EA2 members. If they placed SO you have 100 VP for each person and a money.

Just learn them how to duplicate and how to maintain status.

Is quite discussions about the initial investment in the business! The fact is that the more we come to the entrances of fast profits, but there is little forcing and in terms of initial investment. We can now invest a lot of money and acquire leadership positions immediately ... but Why all that .... this is not the SFI is not in such a manner imagined! SFI gave us exactly the plan of progress in the company and plan for minimal investment brings great success. Some individuals do not read and do not studying this plan and with a huge investment in the early days they want some kind of prestige in the community ..... and the end result of such an attitude is the frustration at losing the status of several of the following month!

For me, the START of the first month of work !!!

The budget required for the START I is $ 20 Fast-track $ 2 w3, and about $ 100 for paid advertising space! The basis of our business in that month's read all the files that we prepared SFI team, based on them to make an advertising campaign for the new members and to sell products with TripleClicks! Maximum use free advertising space and try to activate at least 3 members to accompany us in further progress! Duplication is very important for long-term business and it should be our priority in the understanding of this business.

Further business requires more time and more investment money here but I just looked at the START I ...... and in my opinion, this approach gives the mental stability of the business. From the mental stability easily pass the confidence and enjoyment in the business !!!

To work business with the lovingly given better enjoy the results !!!

$36.25 for a 125 TCredit Pak is a great start! This instantly qualifies you for commissions so you can concentrate on other things, like building a Team!

Obviously, we are all different, so any budget for SFI has to be figured according to your overall family budget.

Just remember, this is a BUSINESS. Any business requires investment. This is your FUTURE. Your future is worthy of investment. Only you can decide the depth of that investment, according to your own level of commitment.
